Sean Christopherson d8fa2031fa KVM: x86/mmu: Replace hardcoded value 0 for the initial value for SPTE
The TDX support will need the "suppress #VE" bit (bit 63) set as the
initial value for SPTE.  To reduce code change size, introduce a new macro
SHADOW_NONPRESENT_VALUE for the initial value for the shadow page table
entry (SPTE) and replace hard-coded value 0 for it.  Initialize shadow page
tables with their value.

The plan is to unconditionally set the "suppress #VE" bit for both AMD and
Intel as: 1) AMD hardware uses the bit 63 as NX for present SPTE and
ignored for non-present SPTE; 2) for conventional VMX guests, KVM never
enables the "EPT-violation #VE" in VMCS control and "suppress #VE" bit is
ignored by hardware.

No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
